Episode 105: Biting a kidney
Welcome back to The Luke and Pete show, where your two eponymous antiheroes wait in situ to waste another 35 minutes of your time. It's tough work, but someone's got to do it. This time around, it's a protein-heavy edition as Pete tucks into eggs and spinach while talking about diets.After that an actual real-life doctor gets in touch to discuss the best way to transport and transplant a kidney (clue: don't take a bite out of it), and then we get into the realms of Jurassic Park with a live orchestra, the absolute state of some of the things dinner ladies used to serve up to school kids, and a legend of The Luke and Pete Show finally gets in touch. Don't miss it!To tell us about the worst food you had served up at school, or indeed anything else for that matter: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 104: Clowning about
Remember when that guy swore at his mum during Christmas dinner? Well, another listener gets in touch with a similar bout of behaviour along the same theme, while another is getting stuck in an isolated toilet block in eastern Europe. Meanwhile, a man is hit in the face by a seal carrying an octopus, a listener has a present from NASA brought home from work by father, and Pete has been taken aback by a hotel in Macau.Just the usual then, something for everyone. And if none of that takes your fancy, stick around for chat about the great heavyweight champion Jack Johnson, and an 80 year old Japanese DJ (separately).Make yourself known: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 103: Antibiotics from India
A man has attempted to flag down a plane at Dublin airport, and miraculously, that man is not Pete Donaldson. He is however on hand to comment upon it, as well as many other issues including rappers eating too many Cheetos, kidneys being transported for transplant, and how much he enjoyed his parents' recent trip down to see him in London.We also welcome a return for Crisp Andy, revisit the famous shower curtain debacle with a man that knows his onions, and marvel at Pete's resourcefulness at purchasing medication from the internet.Hit us up: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 102: Jimmy White's brother
Welcome back! Pete decides that there wasn't quite enough complaining last time round for his rather dour tastes and so we revisit Room 101 (which I suppose for the purposes of this episode will have to be referred to as Room 102), including airport behaviour, lion poo, the downing of spirits and horrendous punk roustabout GG Allin.Elsewhere, there's Pete getting fed with tongs (again), and two frankly remarkable tales about crisps and Jimmy White's brother (separately).Join us and instantly be one of the cool kids: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 101: Tale as old as time
As we speed down the conversational highway past a century of Luke and Pete Shows, episode 101 is a chance to pull into the rhetorical lay-by and take some time to assess which things in the world our listeners truly hate. That's right, in a format that is in no way ripping off a previously popular TV show, Luke puts all our listeners' gripes to Pete and the pathologically strange man decides whether or not they're worthy of entry into Room 101.Expect 3G mobile reception, Bono, Caffe Nero, Zooey Deschanel and much, much more to make an appearance.To send in a gripe of your own, or indeed to get in touch for any other reason, it's: hello@lukeandpeteshow.com***Please take the time to rate and review us on iTunes or wherever you get your pods.

Episode 97: The podcast Mick Hucknall
Happy Monday! The Puke and Leek show is back once more for no other reason than we've got nothing better to do, so why not spend half an hour talking about bad poems at tube stations, Keith Moon, listeners stealing Techdecks and video game re-releases?We also take in a few other bits and pieces from *you* the listener, including an extremely insightful missive about crucifixion.
